I wouldn’t hold my breath, Elton John.

He wants 47 to help raise funds for HIV/AIDS research.

But 47 has gutted USAID, an organization that delivers lifesaving treatments to people in need around the world. He’s also cutting Medicaid.

it ain't gonna be like the Vince McMahon docuseries that's for sure
The documentary about the exposure of Sean “Diddy” Combs will premiere on Netflix on December 2. It is executive-produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson.

Given how much 50 can’t stand Diddy and roasts him every chance he gets, I can gather that Netflix probably reeled him in with this project.

As a Christian, I understand that we should be discerning with what we watch or listen to. With that said, I have always loved the Wizard of Oz franchise since I was a child. I especially enjoy The Wiz and try to watch it yearly. I haven’t seen the Wicked films.

A mother of 8 was sexually abused by an ICE officer.

She went public with the abuse, and was deported the very next day.

Her lawyer says she had a stay on her deportation order

They disappeared her so she couldn’t speak out.

Silvia Reyna Mendoza deserves justice.

ICE should be abolished.

Viola Ford Fletcher has lived through the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. She was the oldest living survivor and boldly told her story.

A judge has dismissed criminal charges against New York Attorney General Letitia James and former FBI Director James Comey.

Of course. The charges were 47’s retaliation against them.

They were unfounded.

Justice for Kayla Bryant. Thank God she’s still here, but I can’t imagine the emotional and mental trauma. There is a viral video of Bryant being attacked by a Morehouse College student and his girlfriend.

Far too often, Black women are being attacked or unalived.

“I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God.
